If The GOP Loses the SenateBlame the Establishment By Laura Ingraham September 19, 2014
Now the concerned whispers are becoming audible groans. Turns out after premature high-fiving in certain Republican circles, the GOP just may be on the verge of blowing its opportunity to take control of the U.S. Senate in November. A few of us have been warning for months that unless the GOP responded smartly to the huge public outcry over the border surge, it would miss a chance to energize disaffected voters. We also urged our friends in the establishment that they shouldnt take their primary victories against more-conservative candidates as a sign that they could play it safe during the campaign.
The public wants policies to strengthen the American workforce, raise its standard of living, and renew and protect the homeland. It wants to see an affirmative agenda to spur growth and economic opportunityone that goes beyond dump Obamacare. But the voters are enduring uninspiring candidates, boring political ads, and wishy-washy campaign statements on immigration enforcement. One of the only Senate campaigns playing the immigration issue correctly is that of moderate Scott Brown in New Hampshire. And guess what? After trailing Jean Shaheen for months, he is now in a dead-heat race with the pro-amnesty Democrat incumbent. Go figure.
Then theres the issue of money. Writing in Thursdays Wall Street Journal, establishment fave Karl Rove says the GOP Senate majority is still in doubt, noting that the GOP Senate candidates are being outspent $109 million to $85 million in media buys. He urges Republicans to open their wallets to candidates whom they have never met. Heres what I say to this entreaty:

If Repubs control the Senate, House and the White House after the 2016 elections, the elites will happily whip up wars to further new world order’s agenda, with tremendous support from the “conservative base”.
The continuing step-by-step establishment of new world order’s police state in America would also have the support of conservatives.
If Dems win the White House in 2016, some of the conservative base will question the rise of the police state and whipping up wars for America, just as a few do now.
Now Boner is saying the unemployed should get off their butts and go to work. I guess that means he believes Obama has turned the economy around.
Seriously, what it really means is he will do all he can to keep the senate in the hands of the democrats. The GopE does not want to win.
Repubs win, then they’ll politically be able to proceed with overt GWB style wars.
Dems win, they’ll have to continue with covert wars.
Afghanistan STILL produces 90% of the world’s heroin, which was the chief point of that “war”.
New world order wanted to move its heroin production to Afghanistan.
The GOP didn’t just burn bridges with the Thad Cochran primary, they took off to the moonbat satellite and nuked them from orbit.
Then they turn around and beg the very same conservatives they labeled racists and extremists for support.
Screw them.
You don’t win elections by urinating on your base.
It was the establishment’s fault we didn’t take back the White House. Why should this election be any different? As long as people roll over and vote for the liberals the GOPe vomits up, nothing will change.
Yep
I don’t feel the need to vote for Corker(GOPeTN). Its not like he’s blocking Obama judges or voting Conservatively.
What they aren’t telling you is that they would rather lose to the Democrats rather than the Tea party.
The Tea party might actually reform things, cut their mad money crazy spending a touch. And the powerful doesn’t want that stopped at all costs. They have a great deal invested in the status quo, and they will keep going until they gut the country.
The republicans on top are just as invested in funneling and spending your money as democrats are. And illegal immigration is all part of it.
Maybe you missed this. http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/isis-terror/kerry-corker-have-heated-exchange-isis-hearing-n205646
Yep, you got it right to the nub. It is nothing more simple than it is ALL about the money.
Your brilliant strategists ran Romney against Obama in 2012 and mittens was so hateful towards conservatives in the GOP that 4 million stayed home and cost him the election. Now the same brilliant strategists are doing it again for the midterm elections in 2014. Republicans and GOP Establishment ARE the Stupid Party.
“GOP Establishment ARE the Stupid Party.”..
You could have saved a lot of words by just stating the obvious.
GOP Establishment ARE the Stupid Party...
...
I disagree. The GOPe is malevolent, not stupid.
They don’t care if they lose to the Dems, because they know the Dems will implement the Big Government they want. As others have said, they’d rather lose to Dems than the Tea Party. What we are seeing is a return to the same GOP we had between Hoover and Reagan.
“You dont win elections by urinating on your base.”
Obama pissed on the blacks, the jews, gays, unions, women and illegals.
And they will still vote for the rats,
“To piss off a conservative, tell him a lie. To piss off a liberal, tell him the truth.”
The problem is that the back stabbing RINOs think that we don't know that. It's gotten so bad that when it was McCain vs Obama, Obama is the lesser of two evils. I'm not sure I want insane McCain to be part of a majority as long as people still include him in their decision making.
It's that McDaniel situation that went too far. The establishment could still turn that around, either by Cocharan withdrawing or having the courts they obviously control giving the nomination to McDaniel.
But the current crop of RINO backstabbing anti-Americans in the US Senate as a majority? The country is going down anyway. It might as well be the dems who have to figure out a way out of the mess. I want a constitutional conservative pro-US party in charge. I don't want the current Republican leadership in charge of ANYTHING!
end of rant
Ironically, dumping obamneycare is NOT on the GOPe's agenda. The only plank the GOPe is pushing is to provide the Chamber of Commies more cheap labor from overseas.
The bottom line is this: If the GOP loses the Senate, its all due to establishment incompetence.

Not entirely, Laura. We conservatives are also sick of their lies, their corruption, and their disdain for the Constitution and for Judeo-Christian values.
